LOL MACS! I had actually thought about posting that too.
Our XO was a frog and had a policy that if anybody puked at PT he doubled down. His theory was we all knew when PT was scheduled, and we should be good to go. Yeah, well...............................................
After the first time I was the trigger for that, my running mate and I would get down to the unit early and Doc would have sickbay set up with exactly that setup. Lactated Ringers and O2. The first time he hooked me up I could not believe the difference it made. I filed that one away. It was our pt ritual after that.
This kind of stuff is why we always groomed a cook, corpsman, disbursing clerk, supply clerk and yeoman that liked to shoot. Free range passes as long as they took care of my guys when we needed it. Always gave a go to guy. Saved my buttocks on more than one occasion. ;)
